Doug Glatt of Orangetown, Massachusetts is floundering in life, he having no real sense of where he fits - having a "thing" as he calls it. He doesn't have the book smarts to become a doctor like his adoptive father or his gay adoptive brother Ira. And he doesn't have the passion that his best friend Pat has for his self-appointed work, hosting a hockey based cable call-in show, Hot Ice. Because his fists and skull are figuratively like steel, Doug is good at the enforcement part of his job as a bouncer despite he having a naturally friendly childlike approach to dealing with people and situations. An incident involving Doug in the stands of an Orangetown Assassins minor league hockey game leads to its coach, Rollie Hortense, offering Doug a tryout with the team as its enforcer, the tryout regardless of the fact that Rollie has no idea if Doug even knows how to play ice hockey (which he doesn't). Learning just enough hockey skills, Doug makes the team. Rollie, however, quickly believes that Doug would be a bigger asset for his brother Ronnie Hortense's team, the Halifax Highlanders. Ronnie has one player, Xavier LaFlamme, who was once well on his way to a successful NHL career, until he was blown a vicious hit three years ago by aged enforcer, Ross "the Boss" Rhea, after which Xavier lost his hockey mojo. Doug's role would be to protect Xavier, while somehow giving Xavier the confidence to feel safe playing hockey freely again. Doug relishes this new role in his life, first with the Assassins then with the Highlanders, as he likes hockey and he stands up for what and who he believes. But Doug may have some obstacles in proving himself to those that matter. Besides the coaches, these people include his family, his fellow players, especially Xavier, and a girl named Eva, who Doug is falling for but who is already in a relationship. But Doug may also have to prove himself to Ross the Boss, who Xavier has not met on the ice since that hit. 为什么我觉得这片子这么基呢。。。。。打架爽快，打完之后呢？。血脉贲张！。爷们！向前冲。自我管控。自己的立场。总归还是体育片儿。TO BE A F*CKING HARD MAN!。冰球角斗士。冰球坏小子观后感。 酒吧保安道格·格拉特（西恩·威廉·斯科特 Seann William Scott 饰）体格强壮，行事略有呆气，在一次观看冰球比赛时将不满观众嘘声的球员痛揍，他的壮举经好友拍摄公布后引起大众注意，阴差阳错加入当地一支冰球队从头学起，充当队中暴徒角色。一场场血战为道格赢来了知名度，在教练的请托和引荐下，道格进入职业小联盟的刺客队，刺客队中有因为受伤而产生心理阴影的昔日王牌球员泽维尔，而道格的任务，即是保证泽维尔等队友在场上的安全。道格在比赛之外结识了热爱冰球的姑娘伊娃（艾丽森·皮尔 Alison Pill 饰），他向姑娘笨拙的表达着自己的爱慕。另一方面，王牌冰场打手罗斯在前方等待着道格的挑战……
